Although our Decentraland Lounge sometimes earned us puzzled looks and the feedback was often “A bench in Decentraland? Nobody needs that!”, it helped us enormously to be able to present something tangible at events. Together with Commerzbank’s HR department, this also gave rise to the idea of virtually mapping the onboarding of new employees in the form of a tour of the Commerzbank Tower. This allows new joiners in particular to get to know the bank’s values, strategy and structure interactively, including all current board members.

Once we had understood the theoretical basics, we quickly realized that the topic was too distant and intangible for many people. To change this and gain our own insights, we set about developing a virtual neosfer representation in the summer of 2022, for which Decentraland was chosen as the platform.

We then also used the lounge for events in the metaverse and expanded it with additional areas. Access to areas that require proof of identity with the help of Lissi is particularly noteworthy here. As a company, we have learned valuable lessons from this in terms of the general handling of crypto.
